( open ) happy moonsgiving, everyone! (forward dated to 11/15)
Date & Time: All Day, November 15th, 3313
Location: Focused centrally on the Moon Base Cafeteria.
Characters: Any and all!
Summary: It's a feast on the moon under the guise of being a new sort of Thanksgiving! Food, drink, merriment, food comas... lend a helping hand, fill a few plates of goodies, and meet friends new and old!
Warnings: None right now. Please PM this account should anything go beyond a "my grandmother is also reading this and that is okay" level of appropriate.
Notes: Tag in action or prose, and please specify a time of day, location, or activity your character is participating in! (Set-up, the feast, clean up, etc.) Feel free to offer multiple prompts, as your heart desires! Also, Collette is asking for people to write something they're thankful for on butchers paper on the wall before getting their first plate of food. This is 100% optional!
In the morning, the setting up begins. It's hard to say what's a morning versus what isn't on the moon, but using the lighting system as a sort of guide, those who offered to help set up the feast or continue on with the cooking will all be there bright and early.
After things are cleaned, the cooking continues on while further set up of plateware and silverware and hard to break glasses are left to those helping hands with a mind for arrangement details. The whole of one section has been converted into a sort of buffet-style lineup, waiting for the dishes to be complete and set at ready. All varieties of the usual dietary fare have been offered, some in greater quantities than others.
Then comes the time where people stopping by or trickling in aren't just turned around or co-opted into assisting; it's feast time, though not before an announcement that each person getting a plate of food must write at least one thing they're thankful for on a large sheet of butcher paper taped up to the wall. There's a variety of colored markers and pens provided, from someone's personal (and eclectic) collection. It's a soft price to pay for free food and plenty of it!
When the feasting has wound down, so begins the clean up. Tired, drunk, well fed, over fed, or simply content, people will be shuffled out or dragged into helping turn the cafeteria back into working, normal form. What decorations were added will need collecting (or stealing), plates and dishes and cooking implements and pots and pans will need washing, and floors a good sweeping and waterless mopping before things are all back in order. Leftovers, if there are any, will need to be placed in sealable containers and put into refrigeration.
And then, blissfully unaware of anything impending on the horizon, to bed, or different haunts, for the night.

[She pauses a moment before smiling, a little melancholy, but happy all the same.]
You know, there was this guy I used to know who made the best food. Just, anything he cooked, it was so good... I wonder if anything he made can be it's own category!
no subject
( She feels this should count. Food made by Mom counts already as something for her, lost to places she can't get back to, and not just because she's on another world, or not exactly alive anymore back home. )
no subject
Mm, it's been a long while. He was a good person, though, I'm sure of it. I remember that much.
no subject
She's glad Ahiru has a happy memory to hold close. Curious about it, of course, but curiosity has a long shelf life, and never really stops being pervasive in many things she does. )
I think there are definitely categories for people like that. The stuff they make, it's just special, even if it's like, one dish they made for you all the time.
no subject
I remember, on my birthdays, he would make me these cakes... They were amazing. He worked in a bakery. It's weird, focusing on little stuff like that when there was so much more to him, but that's one of the things I remember the best, how good those cakes tasted. I mean, that's not the only thing, but you get it.
What about you? Did you have anybody like that?
no subject
( She asks with a laugh. Only she realizes there are a lot of past tense's. Her Mom, for one. Snow, who'd been helping her here. Jesse isn't a past tense, but he's hard to navigate around, spiraling in and out of control like he does. It's frightening.
Then there's Gil, who helped conspire with her to make a dinner for a boy who didn't have the decency to show up. )
Just family. The things you miss when you can't have them anymore.
no subject
[Normally she might be more somber answering a question like that, but on a day like this, specifically made for being thankful for the things in your life, the smile stays on her face.]
You could always go back to them! You never know.
